Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.
It's lookin' like a limb torn off
Or altogether just taken apart
We're reeling through an endless fall
We are the ever-living ghost of what once was
But no one
Is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
And anything to make you smile
It is a better side of you to admire
But they should never take so long
Just to be over then back to another one
And no one
Is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
And someone
They could've warned you
When things start splittin' at the seams and now
The whole thing's tumblin' down
Things start splittin' at the seams and now
If things start splittin' at the seams and now
It's tumblin' down hard
Yeah, anything to make you smile
You are the ever-living ghost of what once was
I never wanna hear you say
That you'd be better off or you liked it that way
And no one
Is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
But someone
They should've warned you
When things start splittin' at the seams and now
The whole thing's tumblin' down
Things start splittin' at the seams and now
If things start splittin' at the seams and now
It's tumblin' down hard
Or altogether just taken apart
We're reeling through an endless fall
We are the ever-living ghost of what once was
But no one
Is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
And anything to make you smile
It is a better side of you to admire
But they should never take so long
Just to be over then back to another one
And no one
Is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
And someone
They could've warned you
When things start splittin' at the seams and now
The whole thing's tumblin' down
Things start splittin' at the seams and now
If things start splittin' at the seams and now
It's tumblin' down hard
Yeah, anything to make you smile
You are the ever-living ghost of what once was
I never wanna hear you say
That you'd be better off or you liked it that way
And no one
Is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
But someone
They should've warned you
When things start splittin' at the seams and now
The whole thing's tumblin' down
Things start splittin' at the seams and now
If things start splittin' at the seams and now
It's tumblin' down hard

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Mountain Song

Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
That is really sweet. Your daughter is a very lucky girl and don't you ever let her forget it!
